New York Red Bulls vs Columbus Crew
USA – Major League Soccer
Date: Sunday, 28 July 2019
Kick-off at 00:30 UK/ 01:30 CET
Venue: Red Bull Arena (Harrison).
The Bulls have a game in hand and will be planning to utilize it to get into the podium spots, considering they are just five points off the top-most position currently. They have put forth an impeccable home record in recent match-days, and in fact, won their last three appearances there.
Columbus, meanwhile, has taken a different direction. They are already one of the worst in the East, and along with that they have been really terrible once away from home. The team has scored the least number of away goals, and so far has registered just a single win on the road.
Crew is winless in their last nine away ties, and more importantly, lost eight of these in a row. Going on, they have just one win to their name from the last 19 such attempts on the road. They had also failed to score in six of last nine such matches.
Meanwhile, their counterparts are unbeaten in their last six home ties and were so in eight of their last nine as well. They also managed to score two or more goals in their last five home games on the trot too.
Coming to h2h ties, five of the last six clashes here saw the Bulls taking the three points, while nine of the last ten overall wins went to the side that hosted the tie. Also, Columbus conceded twice or more in eight of their last ten fights at this venue.
With all these in mind, the top pick is surely a comfortable home win.
